Fishing!!

Yesterday, went fishing with Jonathan and his fishing buddies. We had loads of fun!! We headed to Weymouth, a rocky beach and started our quest to fish Leatherjacket.





The first few catch was small Bass and Puffer Fish by the rest of the gang. I caught nothing but a few bits and it is gone. A few tries later my bait was gone. Hell I am feeding the fishes! Then a few times, my line got caught between the rocks! That is the fun of rock fishing.




It’s a catch! Nono... it’s just stuck... duh...

Then a moment came. My first catch!


A yellow Leatherjacket!

We caught in total 2 big and 3 small Leatherjacket. I caught a small one though. The name speaks by itself. The skin is leathery and it has to be skinned. It also has a horn on its head which is already been cut off after the catch and has extremely strong jaws and teeth which can break stones. The smelly part will be to degut the fish. Its internal organs will decompose faster therefore it has to be taken out asap to keep the fish fresh. It looks delicious after the cleanup. What’s for dinner tonight? One herbs grilled and maybe another with Sambal Blachan? Yummy!!

Peel P50 Microcar

I was watching TopGear just now and it was a very entertaining episode! Jeremy Clarkson presented the old Peel P50 which was introduced in the 1960s! He even drove it around on the road. Not only that, he drove it in an office! Must be tired of walking around. Ha! You should watch that episode. Try searching Peel P50 in YouTube and watch the video. The funniest part would be seeing him driving the car across the background in the middle of the live BBC News broadcast. Try searching also in YouTube “Top Gear - Peel On Live BBC News Broadcast”




They even introduced the sport version!

Mahjong Mahjong Mahjong!

Anyone wanna play mahjong? Last night, I decided to make a mahjong table. The dining table at home is just too long and narrow. The two people who sit along the long side will not have a decent space for tiles. The product of a few hours of labour :

New Hot House!!

Earlier today, I went to Chicken Feed to get a green house, aka hot house. At last, I can grow my plants in a warmer condition in winter. This starter kit looks so cute. If my vegetables grow well, I might consider investing on another one to expand my cultivation.



Inside now sits Linda’s coriander and parsley, Eileen’s small pot but do not know what it is growing, and my watermelon sprout, sunflower and chilli. Just sowed are some bak choy and spinach.

No time to rest

Okay, no time to play, no time to relax, no time to chill, and most important, no time to rest. Submission is around the corner, next Tuesday. Yes, its next Tuesday. Face it Yoke Chye!

But of course you need a bit of rest and you cannot possibly be staring into your computer for the whole day and night. Time to take a bit of break in-between.

Getting Slow?

Somehow, my blog posting seems to be getting slower and lesser. Don’t know if I am busy with my work or I had lesser interest in posting anything. Maybe it’s the latter. It had been the case since my life become more n more mundane.

I shall post a photo of a quick model I made few days ago. Not very impressive but it is a new method of model making to me.

HACKERS ARE BAD

Yesterday morning, my hotmail account had been hacked. My ebay had been hacked too. Some useless and good for nothing hackers had caused me so much inconvenience to me these 2 days. But luckily, hotmail at last replied me just an hour ago to validate my account details and sent me a link to create a new password.

The good for nothing hacker also posted a few items in my ebay account. Guess what was posted… Guitars! Fortunately, ebay has a protection scheme for its users. They removed all the unauthorised listing. That was good of them. I almost had a shock when I saw those listing in my hotmail account just now.

Lesson Learnt: never ever remember your password in your computer or internet browser.

Fanatic over Moon

I just couldn’t get my eyes off the moon when I sees one. Last night, I took the opportunity of a clear night sky, which will always be overcastted later in the night, a photo of the moon.
